I’ve swipped left/right, I’ve long clicked, and I’ve check menus and I don’t see how to delete.

Do you have Plex Pass with the account you are signed into on your iOS device? Because if not, there's your problem.

    Tap Downloads (in the sidebar) and then swipe left.

    Long press makes it show up for me under the downloads section in the hamburger menu.

    Is it a movie on your own Plex or a movie from “Movies & Shows on Plex”?

    Wait, so you want to delete it from the server? Not one you downloaded to your iOS device for local playback? Because pretty sure you can't delete from the server remotely, you'd need to be on the server to do that.

    The instructions given were for deleting movies downloaded to your iOS device in the "downloads" tab.

    No, I’d like to delete from iOS only.

    I go into downloads I get no content. When I switch to library library at the bottom I see options. From there I see movies but when I long press I don’t have a delete option.

    So you don't have any downloaded content if it doesn't show up in downloads.

    I do though… I just tested it and I’m currently watching blackberry in airplane mode. I’m wondering if I just have something stuck from sync vs. download.

    I’ll fully uninstall the app and reinstall to see if still happening.
